How Exodigo develops AI-driven Autodesk

workflows keeping rail projects on track

Who is ?

$214M Founded in 2021 to reimagine infrastructure delivery with AI

Exodigo is backed by

AI-first engineering services company of venture capital

Investing $50M+ annually in developing new technologies

Significant R&D investment

Deploying advanced technology to reduce underground risk

and accelerate major programs

Current focus

Expanding AI-driven solutions across engineering, design,

and PMCM services

Future direction

Exodigo in the US transportation market

WEST SOUTH MIDWEST EAST

Exodigo in Europe

But is plagued by delays and budget overruns

Demand for infrastructure worldwide is growing

A global problem…

 An estimated $106T (€91T) in investment is needed globally

by 2040 to meet infrastructure needs, with $36T (€31T) needed for transport

 Capital projects can have contingency budgets up to 20%

…requiring efficiencies, fast

 The global construction workforce is dwindling

 Innovative technology like ours can fill the gaps and ensure on-schedule progression

Incomplete subsurface data is a multi-billion-dollar problem, worldwide

Exodigo is part of the solution

Nearly half the underground is unknown

 Global costs from project delays, damage, and unexpected

issues surpass $60B (€51B) every year

 The subsurface engineering market is valued at $500B (€430B) — and is overdue for new solutions. Enter Exodigo

Our competitive advantage

 End-to-end automation

 Predictive analytics

 Unified data environment

 Unmatched data accuracy

Why we do it

Compound ROI

 $20+ saved per $1 spent on Exodigo’s services

 Accelerating project schedules, reducing design re-work, and eliminating change orders

ConstructionDesignPreliminary Design

Aboveground surveys procured

Exodigo provides comprehensive above- and below- ground desktop utility maps and identifies stakeholders

Subsurface utility mapping procured; status quo options add another layer of incomplete data to as-builts

Unknown or mislocated utilities discovered during construction results in change orders

Exodigo’s non-intrusive maps and end-to-end advisory provides schedule and cost certainty, ensuring projects run on time and on budget

ConstructionDesignPreliminary Design

Schedule certainty  Greater schedule certainty, from

procurement to construction

 Providing the most accurate view of a jobsite from the preliminary design phase

Program overview

from the schedule • 500-mile system connecting San Francisco to Los Angeles

• Total project cost: $89B–$128B

• Estimated 11.8 million annual riders by 2030

Current work

• Completed First 5 sites for CP1 – delivered with happy client

• Completed 117 mi alignment record collection (ExoInfo)

• Contracted for 25 Jack & Bore sites – currently mobilizing

• Contracting for desktop utility record collection and automated

cost estimating services to support upcoming Business Plan

updates

Complete, trusted, market-leading data in one package

The result: status quo vs. Exodigo

AI adoption roadmap

Looking ahead

Expanding into full-

service AI engineering Building AI-enabled
